Chapter 537: You Want to Be the Emperor?
When he first heard Dong Qingyun talk about the name of the Dingnan Army, Brother Shi felt that the name was very majestic, and thought that the word "Dingnan" mentioned by Dong Qingyun meant the pacification of Jiangnan. Now listening to Shen Wei again, Brother Shi understands that this so-called Dingnan Army originally meant pacifying Nanqing......
I have to say, Dong Qingyun, the old fox, really has a set! Brother Shi thought in his heart, he first shook his head and smiled bitterly, and then looked at Shen Wei with a curious expression and asked, "Then Luo Haotian...... It should be someone from the Qinglian Sect, right? ”
"That's right!" Shen Wei nodded first, and then continued: "Luo Haotian is indeed a person in the Qinglian Sect, and there are more than 2,000 elite soldiers under him!" That's where our biggest obstacle comes this time...... Therefore, Lord Dong is using the slogan of pacifying Jiangnan officialdom, the purpose is not to arouse the suspicion of the Nanqing court......"
"But...... Xiaowei, you don't really think that on Yelian Island, the 'Dingnan Army' formed by Dong Qingyun can really defeat Luo Haotian, right? They ......"
Brother Shi thought that Shen Wei didn't know about the situation on Yelian Island yet, and wanted to mention it, but Shen Wei suddenly interrupted him: "I know the situation on Yelian Island, but it's just ...... Now there is no other way. Originally, I thought that it would take some time for the Qinglian Sect to do it, but who knew that they would have to do it during this Jiangnan Poetry Meeting...... So, I have to ask Childe for help. ”
After Shen Wei finished speaking, she looked at Brother Shi with a serious face, and Brother Shi smiled bitterly: "Then according to what you say, the food and grass for those people on Yelian Island have been supplied by you?" ”
"It's not ...... Although the emperor of Nanqing did not give Dong Daren a horse, he also gave some military salaries. Fortunately, Baihua, Luo Haotian and others did not have doubts. Shen Wei shook her head and explained.
"Alas......" Brother Shi sighed again when he heard it, and it wasn't until a long time that he spoke: "Xiaowei, in fact, whether it's Beiqing or Nanqing, or Qinglian Sect, I don't bother to care, the reason why I will stand on Dong Qingyun's side this time is only because this matter happened in Jinling, and I have to take care of it because of Luo Haotian's relationship...... But I didn't expect you to be like this, which really embarrassed me......"
Shen Wei didn't know the meaning of Shi Yuan's words for a while, and looked at him very suspiciously: "Xiao Wei didn't want to implicate the son in this matter, if the son is embarrassed......
She was about to continue, but Brother Shi suddenly stretched out his hand in front of her, and then took her hand full of pity: "You little fool, no matter what, I will definitely help you." What's more, if I really let Luo Haotian's old thing succeed, wouldn't I have a good life? ”
"What does that boy mean......"
"What I mean is whether this Jinling should be handed over to the Beiqing Emperor in the future......"
Brother Shi said, then he suddenly stood up, and then walked to the window, glanced at the Qinhuai River outside the window, and only after a long time did he say to himself: "I Shiyuan didn't have any lofty ideals, but since I came to this world, I must always leave a little mark, this Jinling is the first step I want to start, I don't like to be restrained!" ”
Looking at Shi Yuan who was standing by the window, Shen Wei listened with a puzzled face, so she asked tentatively in a low voice, "Childe...... Are you going to be the emperor? ”
Brother Shi, who was impassioned just now, couldn't help but be stunned after listening to Shen Wei's words, and then turned around, looked at Shen Wei and smiled, walked to the table and knelt down and said, "Then Xiaowei, do you want to be a concubine?" ”
Shen Wei shook her head and said, "Over the years, Xiaowei has experienced too many ...... If it weren't for the fact that my teacher was here, I wouldn't have wanted to get involved in these power struggles. If the prince becomes the emperor...... I am a concubine, so who will be the queen? ”
Shen Wei was originally talking with emotion, but as she spoke, she suddenly noticed the criticism in Shi Yuan's words. This couldn't help but pursed his mouth a little dissatisfied, and asked Shi Yuan very dissatisfied.
"This ...... By the way, Xiaowei, what is that Baihua going to do this time? ”
Brother Shi didn't care about the problem of the queen and the concubine at all, Fang Cai was originally a casual remark by him, but now that he was discovered by Shen Wei, he hurriedly laughed and changed the topic.
Shen Wei didn't care too much, she just snorted coldly and replied, "Naturally, she is here to prevent accidents from happening in this Jinling. However, as far as I know, she only thinks that the Blue Lotus Sect has taken action now, but she is not aware of other ......."
Brother Shi heard this, and nodded silently: The identities of Dong Qingyun and Shen Wei, if it weren't for Qiao Cannon's idle chat, it would be impossible to guess it. Rao is her ability to spend a hundred flowers, but I am afraid that I would never have thought that Dong Qingyun, who has been an official in Nanqing for decades, would actually be a spy of Emperor Beiqing. I wouldn't have thought that Shen Wei, the saintess of the Qinglian Sect, would actually be a person from Beiqing.
However, thinking of Baihua's sad appearance when he left today, Brother Shi was also slightly uncomfortable......
I don't know how that chick is doing now......
"What? Aren't you the same junior sister who feels sorry for me? Seeing that Shi Yuan frowned and didn't speak for a long time, Shen Wei opened her mouth to ask.
Brother Shi, who was told the central matter, hurriedly shook his head in a panic and said, "There is nothing to do!" How could I feel sorry for her! Xiaowei, don't think about it too much...... I'm just a little curious, since Baihua already knows about the Qinglian Sect's scheme, why is it still indifferent? ”
"Indifferent? Not necessarily! Doesn't she want you to get close to me? ”
"That being said, she didn't do anything!"
"It's just that you don't know...... She originally wanted to use your relationship to cause discord within the Qinglian Sect. Even Master Dong was used by her. It's just that she didn't expect that Master Dong and I are both from Beiqing......"
After Shen Wei finished speaking, Brother Shi remembered that Mo Lingtian who had blocked the road and wanted to kill him before. It seems that Baihua originally planned to get close to Shen Wei, and coupled with his relationship with Dong Qingyun, the "important minister of Nanqing", he attracted suspicion......
Brother Shi was thinking in his heart, and then he heard Shen Wei continue: "In addition, I also have what she wants in my hands......
After speaking, he took out the dagger from her arms and put it in front of Shi Yuan's eyes......
Looking at the dagger in front of him that he had taken from Shen Wei and was taken away by Mo Lingtian, Brother Shi couldn't help but look surprised: "This ...... This dagger is not ......"
"He'll come back!" Shen Wei first opened her mouth to answer, and then explained: "This dagger is now a token of my Qinglian Sect, so he naturally wants to return it!" ”
Brother Shi listened, so he nodded, and then didn't ask anything else, but picked up the dagger, pulled out the scabbard, looked at the cold light on the dagger, and asked, "You mean...... Baihua, she asked me to come to you to steal this dagger? ”
Shen Wei looked at Shi Yuan, pursed her lips and nodded......
